    If you are upgrading to a new major version, you can upgrade your existing licence at a significant discount over the standard price.

How to Upgrade

 
To upgrade your Sentry-go monitoring software to a later release simply follow these steps ...

If you have a customised version of a Sentry-go product, please contact us for further assistance before installing any upgrade. Installing the default solution may cause your customisations to be lost.

  • Verify it operates correctly on your environment by running it on a test server. We recommend that you check that your current monitoring checks & alerting options continue to work in a test environment before upgrading your live software.

  • Finally, run the Setup Wizard on your current system to perform the upgrade. Where appropriate, the Wizard will detect the existing product and prompt you accordingly.

    Please note: Due to technical changes from earlier v4.x monitors, it is not possible to upgrade or transfer your existing configuration settings. However, it is possible to install both v4.x and v6.x monitors on the same machine so that these settings can be compared.
     
    If you are upgrading from v5.x to v6.x, you have the option of converting/retaining your existing settings during the upgrade process.
